The whole reason I started this blog is now the same reason keeping me away.
Turns out that these little buggers sleep less during the day as they get older. And they require attention. And supervision. And interactivity. And stimulation. A lot of it.
And in the 20-minute spans of nap time, I fly around the house like a bat out of hell trying to clean, straighten, organize, wash, iron, scrub, vacuum, furminate, cook.
Not to mention timing errands to fit into the eat-nap-whine schedule. And holy balls, that car seat it getting $#^@ heavy trying to wedge it in and out of the car 7 times a day. He’s not even a fat kid. I’m just weak. I try to limit to two errands a day. Which means I still have to leave my house five days a week.
By the time I have a moment to chillax, writing seems like work. And I’m not working for a reason.
Work sucks.
I want to sit on the couch and watch CSI: Miami or Next Top Model and not think. Not thinking is awesome. I enjoy it.
I’m still rooting for this blog. I have a metric shitton to write about. Maybe when the kid goes to kindergarten you’ll get to hear all about it.
I feel the exact same, my posts have been limited to photo updates recently, lol.
At least you’ve done that! I see the folder with 200 images from Christmas and sorting/editing seems so daunting.
I’m still rooting for you. If he’s got that much energy, get him to do something. Like vacuuming. Or laundry. Or writing the blog.
His grammar is terrible, though.
Breathe, woman! Nothing wrong with chillaxin.
You need to take time for you, important stuff there.
I went out, sans baby, for drinks with some former coworkers last week and let me tell you. It felt good to be an adult!
Oh good! The other night I spent a few hours drinking and lollygagging with a mama friend of mine. We hadn’t actually seen each other without the chitlins since having them. Feels very good, indeed!
I am so with you on this one. I’m still rooting for your blog, too. And mine.
WE CAN DO THIS.
WE ARE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU. Oh, Tiffany. Do not piss off Tyra.
The early seasons of ANTM were THE BEST. Thanks for rooting for me!
